"Do Not Be Afraid"

There is a particular kind of fear that doesn't announce itself loudly. It doesn't make us tremble or run. It simply makes us quiet - quiet about what we believe, quiet about who we are, quiet about the God we claim to follow....Fr Odinaka

Blessings to all for a wonderful Week end of the 12th Sunday in Ordinary time and week ahead. Cecilia

On the Solemnity of the Sacred Heart, the Church fixes her gaze on the Heart of Christ, pierced on the Cross and burning with divine love for humanity. The Sacred Heart reveals the fullness of God’s mercy, a love that suffers, forgives, and saves. On this day, the faithful are invited to return love for Love, to console the Heart of Jesus through prayer, repentance, and deeper devotion to the Holy Eucharist.

The day after the Sacred Heart, the Church honors the Immaculate Heart of Mary, a heart formed perfectly in obedience, purity, and love for God’s will. Mary’s Heart is inseparable linked to the Heart of Christ, for she always leads us to Him. In honoring her Immaculate Heart, we learn how to love Jesus more purely and how to remain faithful even in suffering.

These two great days in June reveal the mystery of love at the center of the Christian faith. The Sacred Heart of Jesus reveals God’s infinite mercy. The Immaculate Heart of Mary reveals perfect human response to God. Together they form one path: love of God and union with Christ.
To honor these Hearts is to enter into the deepest mystery of salvation itself.

Wishing you all a spirit-filled feasts of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus and Immaculate Heart of Mary. Blessing and Peace!

Ex 19:2-6 Dcn Adrian

The story of God freeing the people of Israel from slavery in Egypt and leading them to the Promised Land is recounted in four out of the five books of Moses, also known as the Torah. The Book of Exodus is the main book recounting this episode in Israel’s history.

ANIMA CHRISTI
Soul of Christ, sanctify me.
Body of Christ, save me.
Blood of Christ, inebriate me.
Water from the side of Christ, wash me.
Passion of Christ, strengthen me.
O good Jesus, hear me.
Within your wounds hide me.
Permit me not to be separated from you.
From the wicked foe, defend me.
At the hour of my death, call me,
and bid me come to you,
that with your saints I may praise you
for ever and ever. Amen.

Happy Feast of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ to you all!
